We were so thrilled to work with one of our favorite clients, Anjani & Rahul, to plan their son, Mohan’s 2nd Birthday Party this July! Our first event together was their baby shower back in May 2015, followed by Mohan’s 1st Birthday Party last summer. It has been such a privilege to work with this couple and their lovely family a third time around, and be a witness to these special milestones!
Unlike the past two events we planned, located at NYC venues, this celebration was hosted by Mohan’s grandparents at their beautiful home in Manhasset, NY. Their waterfront property was the perfect setting for an outdoor summer event and we were lucky enough to have perfect weather! After visiting the residence, we were so excited to get to work on planning all the special details.
Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood is Mohan’s favorite show so it was only fitting that this would be the theme for his birthday party! We made sure to incorporate Daniel Tiger and friends into all elements of the event from large props to the take home favors. The color scheme, also inspired by the show, was bright and bold primary colors. This playful palette was so fun to work with and created a colorful backdrop to accent the outdoor venue.
Friends and family of all ages attended the afternoon gathering so it was important to have activities and entertainment for everyone to enjoy. A petting zoo, photobooth and coloring stations were setup outside the tented area for guests to participate throughout the event. The animals in the petting zoo were a crowd favorite and both adults and children loved using the fun props to pose for the photobooth!
The event was fully catered and we brought in some special desserts to highlight the Daniel Tiger theme for the birthday boy! Colorful cupcakes and a fabulous tiered cake were a sweet ending to this happy celebration!
